... and for me this should be the end of this thread. It captures the argument well (from me as a K3 user who is disinclined to switch). I'm sure in very many cases you can get 'there' with a K-3, but as normadkng says with more effort. The reasons for switching are many and will change. How about re-visiting this in 6 months, say ?

I've similarly been scratching that itch a lot recently. I keep asking myself, really, what would I gain by 'upgrading' to a K-1.
There might be some occasions in which I'd have a better chance of nailing 'The Shot', but at what cost (money, weight, new filters, bigger bag, a small flash, re-learning from the instinctive usage I now have with APS-C etc etc).
So I'd suggest a boring list of pros V cons for your particular usage. I was rather surprised how far the K-3 system came out on top for me - currently. Perhaps then leave this list to settle a bit and see whether the pros v cons change over the next few weeks/months. After a while the dust will have settled and a more informed decision can then be made.
As an aside, for me, printing my images is key. I'm far from convinced that a well taken shot on a k-3 when well processed will be inferior to one taken on a K-1 as the paper compresses the image so much from what we see on screen and sensitive processing will handle any/virtually all differences. Obviously the K-1 will be superior in low light and high ISO, but how often might this affect you, if you print your images ?
Ignore the itch, for now ...
